And he who mingles music with gymnastic in the fairest proportions, and best attempers them to the soul, may be rightly called the true musician and harmonist in a far higher sense than the tuner of the strings. You are quite right, Socrates. And such a presiding genius will be always required in our State if the government is to last. Yes, he will be absolutely necessary.

The potentiometer must never be shunted around the B battery or the latter will soon run down. A potentiometer costs a couple of dollars. The Parts and How to Connect Them Up. To wire up the parts connect the leading-in wire of the aerial with the primary coil, which is the middle one of the tuner, and connect the other terminal with the ground.

He was the most industrious and, in his small way, the most resourceful of men. He was insurance agent, toilet soap agent, piano tuner, giver of piano lessons, seller of pianos and of music on commission. He worked fourteen and sixteen hours a day. He made nominally about twelve to fifteen a week.

You could tell, with people like that, if you had an eye for such matters. And then his recognition of Bernstein's nefarious handiwork had clenched her conviction. Certainly she had been right about it; he had absolutely bewitched that piano of hers. She didn't believe there was another such tuner in the United States. If they would come up-stairs after dinner, she'd show them.

Isabel. It's not for me to diminish your triumph. Warland. By Jove, I can't think why Mrs. Raynor didn't tell me he was coming. A man like that one doesn't take him for granted, like the piano- tuner! I wonder I didn't see it in the papers. Isabel. Is he grown such a great man? Warland. Oberville? Great? John Oberville?

He must also see that his detector is adjusted to its greatest degree of sensibility and his tuner to the proper wave length.

"Lead me to it," said Jimmy, and the two boys went downstairs. "Say, that's a pippin," said Jimmy, as Bob switched on the light and he caught sight of the finished tuner. "I couldn't have done it better myself. You've certainly made a first class job of it." "We thought it wasn't so bad," admitted Bob modestly.

You do not require a condenser for a simple receiving set, but if you will connect a fixed condenser across your headphones you will get better results, while a variable condenser connected in the closed circuit of a direct coupled receiving set, that is, one where a double slide tuning coil is used, makes it easy to tune very much more sharply; a variable condenser is absolutely necessary where the circuits are inductively coupled, that is, where a loose coupled tuner is used.

For this experimental continuous wave telegraph transmitter get the following pieces of apparatus: one single coil tuner with three clips; one .002 mfd. fixed condenser; three .001 mfd. condensers; one adjustable grid leak; one hot-wire ammeter; one buzzer; one dry cell; one telegraph key; one 100 volt plate vacuum tube amplifier; one 6 volt storage battery; one rheostat; one oscillation choke coil; one panel cut-out with a single-throw, double-pole switch, and a pair of fuse sockets on it.
